It has a recorded floor area of 105 m² (around 1130 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B.

Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump.
